They don't really play good football, they are just been overrated, media in England do the work for them.


All these Barca fan self..

La Liga has always been a three-horse race as compared to the EPL, where no one could predict what might happen.

For the past few years, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manu have all won champions league, unlike laliga wey be way nah just Barca / Madrid..

Chelsea for example has always defeated laliga, SerieA, Bundesliga teams in champions league, Including Barca, though our head stats is Draw. We even defeated you guys with 10 against 11 when Barca was still Barca with all their players on pitch..

Any match involving Epl teams in Euro cups is always tough. Y’all knows that but can’t just admit the fact!

You wan dey compare them set of defenders that have played in Epl to Laliga? Even serieA used to be a very tough league than La-Liga..

English League is not difficult. It is just that they didn't have quality goal scorers in their primes. E.g Cr7. When cr7 started in England, he wasn't prolific as he was when he got to Spain. Cr7 started declining in goal scoring from 2016 in Spain.

Mo Salah won the golden boat with 34 goals a certain season but you are here telling us that most a player can score in England wouldn't be more than 20 goals to win golden boot.

This season will shock you. You will see how Halaand will win the golden boot with more than 40 goals. He is all ready on 17 with 27 games left. You will see that your "hard" league is always short of prolific strikers.

You are saying it is only in Spain, one can score more than 80 goals in a calendar year.

Apart from Lionel Messi mention one player that has played in Spain and had scored more than 70 goals in a calendar year.

Cr7 you are mentioning has never scored up to 70 goals in a calendar year in laliga.

Jesus navas and who so ever you are calling can't even lace the boot of jao Felix.... You are calling average players, stars in Laliga. I am trying to remember the last time I heard of the name Jesus Navas in Sevilla.



The thing is Spain are always lucky with exceptional players.

And they do very well in European football competition (UEFA &Europa). That is why they are very good in producing more Balloon D'or winner. Even Fifa Best players.

Make the ronaldo fan dey cap rubbish...all these fans that knows zero...they think football revolves around EPL for life bcus they only watch Chelsea and manU matches. Only thing is EPL has more money than other leagues. England is richer than Spain, Italy etc. So their clubs have money to spend to buy made players and hyped players(ManU) cheesy

.. So na only CRonaldo and Owen. The rest na oldies..

Cristiano Ronaldo (1)
Denis Law (1)
Bobby Charlton (1),
George Best (1),
Michael Owen (1),
Stanley Mathews (1).

Ronaldo won the remaining 4 in Laliga.

So they barely win it. Just 6 epl players while Seven Real Madrid players had won the award 11 times in the past with Ronaldo winning four

English premiere league is so difficult.
even more difficult than Spanish La-Liga.
It's only in the English premier league that you can win the golden boot by scoring only 19 goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo & other great strikers in all their seasons in the premier league never managed to score more than 50 goals in a season.
It's only in the Spanish la-liga that players like Ronaldo & Messi managed to score 80 goals or more in a calender year because of how easy the league is.
And most times the number of goals you score, determines your position on the balon-dor list.
Even players like Negrado & Jesus Navas who flopped in the premier league, became stars when they switched to La-liga.

but halaand has turned it to farmers league with 17 goals already

Oga what are you saying sef. Are you talking about madrid's money or what? Mention the EPL player that came to Spain and broke records. Just name one or rest forever please. You have forgotten pep guardiola is Spanish product that you mocked and said he won't win anything in EPL. Can you still count how many records and cups he has won?

that’s because English premier league is the most difficult league where bottom line team will beat a team topping the league, in Spanish league or Budisliga or Italian serie A n French league you can easily spot who will win the league from January and there are mostly only 3 or four contenders while premiership Leceister city can come out from know where and win league, individual football in premier league they can give you one season after then next one when defenders mount guard on the player he won’t even score like thr previous season, Give Kudos to Manchester United for being the only team that has produced world best in premier league, I am red cheesy cheesy

True, the English media can make you think you are doing badly but in real sense you are doing better.

The worst part is even if their own English players are doing averagely, they rate them above other non national players that are even doing better.

Imagine if Victor Oshimen was an Engish player, we no go hear word. Because na Nigerian, the media is not must accolades to him.

Not trying to take sides with him bro, but for a second, imagine Haaland in Barcelona, Madrid, or PSG!

Just imagine it! tongue

There's nothing to imagine. Haaland wasn't scoring at this rate until he joined the "tough" league...leemao.

Haaland will join Madrid in future. I doubt he scores 17 in 11 lol.

Thing is, EPL teams are just not tactical enough especially knowing when to defend and attack. Whether you believe it or not EPL teams are just too open and prone to errors. Poor teams like Leeds, Villa trying to go toe toe with City, Liverpool will always result in bloodbath.

It's not about having Messi...how many English (from England) are coaching in the league and doing well, how many of their players are doing well(world class) level.

Thing is English teams are just for entertainment. The tactical side apart from king Pep who's busy farming the league with 5 in 6 lol. Looking like 6 in 7 hmm

Only Pep, Klop, Hag and most recently Arteta are tactical enough.

EPL is a very strong league, but wey too overated.

Like I said and I reiterate. Haaland will join Madrid in future. I doubt he scores 17 in 11 leemao!!!

Take this your excuse to the cleaners. Many EPL players have tried severally in La Liga without succeeding. Many great EPL players never made in La Liga. EPL is so tough that Man United hardly beat any La Liga team even as small as Real sociedad, Vilareal . EPL is so tough that UCL and Europa is dominated by La Liga . EPL is so tough that Harzard , a famous EPL player can't play in La Liga . EPL is so tough that Thierry Henry failed in EPL.

EPL it's only regarded as the best because of the English media . The English media have made you love it . Because of that you defend them in every possible way .

The English Premier League is the leader in viewership across the globe.

The English premier league is also Considered the toughest league competition in the world.

English premier league also surpasses all others in terms of financial might like spending outrageous amount of money on buying or selling their players.

But Why is that Ballon d'Or winner barely comes out of England despite being considered the most toughest and most viewed football league in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo was the last person that won it in English premier league 2008 when he was playing for Manchester united.

2020 there was no Ballon d'Or winner due to corona virus outbreak but assuming it held we all know it was not coming to England. The award was going to Robert Lewandowski in Germany, FC Bayern Munich.

The Ballon d'Or award is an annual football award for the best player over the previous year. The recent winner of the Ballon d'Or award is a Real Madrid player, Karim Benzema.

Is it that English premier league players are just overrated and hyped? Or is it that if you want to create name for yourself premier league is the right place But if you want to win trophies Spanish league is the right place?? Please let share our thoughts on this issue.

Michael Owen won Ballondor but u removed him from ur list he played for Liverpool at the time.


Real answer is coincidental, the numbers show that the english league is the best. The english league is the best league but all the other European leagues hate that.

Look athe politics UK left EU and are actually an island off of Europe.

It just happened that the players at the peak play for the prestigious clubs in Europe

The balon d'Or is designed to favour goalscorers. Canavaro is the only defender to have won it according to that list up there. The only person to have outscored both Messi and Ronaldo was Lewandowski but unfortunately, the year he could have won, the award wasn't organised cry Having said that I think, Haaland stand a good chance of winning it if Manchester city can at least reach the semi's of the UCL. He's on cause to reach 40 league goals this season..
